The Lenovo Legion Tower 5 Gen 10 gaming PC includes an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card, 32GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB M.2 SSD. A 240mm liquid cooler is included for the processor—an uncommon feature in the Legion Tower 5 series. It also has an 850W 80PLUS Gold power supply for reliable performance. The case is designed for toolless access, and most components are standard, making future upgrades straightforward. However, the CPU and motherboard are the exceptions and cannot be easily replaced.

The Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX is typically a laptop CPU

As per Lenovo's specifications, this PC uses an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU on a custom Intel HM870 mATX motherboard. The 275HX is typically found in laptops, meaning it is permanently attached to the motherboard and cannot be upgraded later. If you plan to upgrade your CPU in the future, you may prefer a gaming PC with a standard desktop processor. If not, the Ultra 9 275HX delivers strong performance. According to Passmark, its gaming performance is similar to the Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF, and it offers superior multi-core performance with its 24 cores compared to the 265KF's 20.

The RTX 5070 Ti GPU excels at 4K gaming

Even though the CPU is a mobile chip, the RTX 5070 Ti is a desktop-class graphics card with 16GB of RAM and 1,406 AI TOPS. Unlike the CPU, the GPU can be upgraded by the user.

Among the Blackwell series released so far, the RTX 5070 Ti offers the best value for money, especially compared to previous-generation GPUs. Its performance is on par with the RTX 4080 Super, and it narrows the gap with the RTX 5080, which is only about 10%-15% faster but costs 33% more. Like other Blackwell cards, the RTX 5070 Ti supports DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation. It also includes 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM, the same as the RTX 5080, making it a solid choice for AI tasks.
